Fall Weekends (Day 249/250/251/252)

Another wonderful, blessing filled weekend in Tulsa! Friday, I got to go to lunch with a special friend and then that night ran into two of my favorite guys from Park when I was enjoying Octoberfest downtown. Saturday I carved some pumpkins with the lovely ladies of the Park Plaza singles group. And Sunday after accidentally sleeping through church because my phone died (which doubles as my alarm) I was convinced to still come to lunch. I'm glad I got to attend since a beautiful, smart, and talented friend of mine is going through some rough times in grad school. Another friend and I got to give her some encouraging words and share our tough times and how God took our "failures" and caused even better plans to happen. And that my friends is what it's all about to have a church family! People to be there to help you up when you are down. I know my family has come to my rescue so many times in the past and I've only known them two years!

Today I went back to my temp job. I ended up dying the tips of my hair red after my ponytail fell into the bright red paint I was using, I acquired some new stained to the now completely ruined jeans of mine, and I finished 3 things on my list of 8. I really enjoyed working by myself today. I was able to go at my pace, I didn't have to check in with anybody so I moved a lot quicker, and I was able to set a goal of what I wanted to finish by the end of the day since I knew all the tasks for the week. I so thankful that God blessed me with this job and that it turned into so much more. I would of never imagined the head designer and senior vice president of a multimillion dollar company would leave me by myself to their 2nd most important showroom. It amazes me at what can happen in one's life when they put their heart to something. If I had ended up complaining about being tired and showed that when I was around my boss, there's no way I would be here right now. It's just a reminder I need to keep telling myself. "Wherever you are, be all there."

Here are some pictures from carving which I have so kindly stolen from friends since my parents had my camera this weekend.
